“Great emotions. Two equal teams who also played well in the Euroleague. No wonder they met in the final and took it to the decisive seventh game. To be honest, I’m impressed with the character of Zenit. Win the series against CSKA, loss 1-3 “It’s very difficult. And they won two matches in Moscow. They absolutely did it on the game. So they deserved the title 100%,” Sport-Express quoted Kirilenko.
Recall that in the decisive seventh game of the VTB United League final series, Zenit defeated CSKA Moscow (81:75, 4-3 in the series) and won the tournament for the first time in its history.
CSKA failed to win the VTB United League for the first time in 11 years. After the decisive seventh game, the head coach of the army team, Dimitris Itoudis, announced that he was leaving his post.
Recall that in February this year, both clubs, as well as UNICS Kazan, were suspended from participation in the Euroleague due to military events in Ukraine.
